I'm a member of a local Quilt History Study
Group; so Antique quilts inspire me.
I made this little doll quilt with
a matching tote. It's styled after
an Antique Medallion doll quilt
It measures 14" x 14" and I hand
quilted it only in the ditch. Doing
that gives the quilt a nice puffy look.
I love the fabric in this quilt; the
only problem is that I bought it as
a remnant and the selvage was cut off.
I'm in love with such treasures from the
past!
This would make such a cute gift for
a girl of any age.
Living here in Lancaster county; I'm
always inspired by Amish, Mennonite and
Vintage quilts.
I made this small wall hanging which
measures 21" x 21".
Pinwheel is the center design which has
printed fabric; unlike the Amish that use
mostly solids - it is machine quilted with
a more modern quilting design - Amish quilts
are hand quilted with feathers, flowers or
other motifs.
Both are for sale in my Etsy shop.

Happy Quilting!
